NHS Greater Manchester primary care demonstrator evaluation
As part of its 2013 primary care commissioning strategy, NHS England (Greater Manchester) funded six demonstrator communities to implement and test new and innovative ways of delivering primary care services, with a key focus on increased access to general practice, integration and the use of technology.
This report sets out the findings from an evaluation of these pilot sites, covering particularly use of seven-day services and the relationship between increased GP appointment availability and A&E or urgent care admissions.
